In The Hope Of Yes

Previously on The Chronicles of Maya: Care…..matters!

Maya was feeling low after continuously being betrayed and backstabbed by people she considered friends. She longed for love and affection and hoped that Z, whom she loved deeply, would reciprocate her feelings someday.

She noticed that she was always the one initiating conversations with Z, and it was getting exhausting. She decided to stop texting and calling him and wait for him to make an effort to reach out to her.

Eight days later, at 1:00 am, Maya received an unexpected message from Z on WhatsApp. He asked her what time she sleeps, and Maya was curious as to why he wanted to know. Z responded that he was lonely and that people had made him feel like a troublemaker.

Despite his drunken state, Maya decided to continue the conversation and check if he was okay. Z expressed his frustration with his friends and ex-girlfriend for not understanding him and claimed that no one loved him. Maya tried to comfort him, reminding him of the positive changes he had made in his life.

Z acknowledged her support and revealed that he was going back to Rohtak, his hometown, for his mother’s birthday. Maya expressed her desire to meet him before he left, and Z eagerly agreed.

Before ending the conversation, Maya finally confessed her love for Z, and he promised to discuss it when they met.

Excited and hopeful, Maya messaged Anil, telling him about the conversation she had with Z. Anil replied with a smiley face, seemingly supportive.

However, Anil was staying at Z’s place that same night and had also heard about the conversation. Anil ignored Maya’s message and poured himself another drink, leaving his intentions unclear

  1. More to come… I don’t know why but I have an uncanny feeling that Maya will become negative in future. And I’m sure Z or zan won’t say yes atleast not so soon because writers never make things easy. Do they?

    1. Love Maya’s character.. this is an excellent chapter that gives us wanting more. You’re very gifted!

  2. Ok so now this is getting like a true thriller. How do you manage to keep a few cards unopened? awesome. I really wish, Anil is helping Maya by making Z speak up the truth.

  3. Writing a suspense story is a tough task and u ace that skill. You make sure the reader comes back to your blog just to know if Anil is a friend or foe! or if Z loves Maya? or if Maya would be bluffed or crossed over! gosh.. m waiting for the next blog.. when is it coming? Monday or before that?

  4. What an interesting situation. I am looking forward to hearing what happens next. No one is perfect, but is this something they can work past…

  5. the story is becoming more and more interesting! I waiting for the next part of the story and I really want to know more! What Anil is up to? so curious!
    P.S. I do hope Zan loves Maya!

  6. Great writing. I think that Maya will wake up one day and move on the find her Mr. Right…or maybe her Mrs. Right. I do believe that there is someone out there that we are supposed to be with and when you find that person it is no longer work. The problem is after relationships like that we often close ourselves off from the possibilities. Keep it up!

  7. very interesting! I am going to go back to your previous posts and see what I have been missing because it seems like I just stumbled into the middle of a story! Looking forward to more! Blessings!

    I saw the date 6th march, and its bit significant day in my life. Anil seems to be a tricky person, would want to know what is his role in between Maya and Z.

  9. I can’t stand how much Z is yanking her chain. I know he has been hurt but she is putting herself out there and not getting anything in return. I hope she gets the answers she so desperately needs.

  10. This is just getting better and better. I honestly wish she would just move on.. shes better then this!!

  11. This is such a fascinating read. It isn’t one of those readings that you can predict the end of. There were so many things I didn’t see coming. Thank you for sharing this, I hope this all has a happy ending.

  12. I am reading this story for the first time, very interesting story. Waiting for the next part. I will love to read more.to see what happens.

  13. Again… suspense! I’ll have to wait to find out. I enjoy your short episodes and can’t wait for the next.

  14. They say he’s a trouble maker, also likes to drink – those should be her red flags right there. I personally think this gal needs to get over him and move on. We’ll see what happens

  15. I have to read more chapters to get to know the story better. I really hope it has a happy ending for Maya.

  16. If you have to ask, the answer is no. You need to constantly be asking someone for reassurance, the right person will. Seems to be that she needs to learn how to love herself and build more self worth

  17. Iam now getting suspicious of this Anil guy. Is he playing both of them for his benefit? And i think Maya maybe better off without Z as he clearly has issues – jumping from one topic to another, cribbing one instant and talking of travelling the next.

  18. Oh wow can’t wait to know what happens I think Z may forget he talked to Maya due to the drinking but Anil may just end up spoiling it for Maya. Waiting for the next.

  19. I so wanted to read on the next chapter. Cussing the suspense of Maya, z and anil. Z might not say yes but anil likes her but Maya loves z. This is what I am thinking

  20. So Maya confessed, but Z was so normal when he heard her, and Anil at Z’s place? I hope he is helping Maya.. or maybe he is having some feeling for Maya.. You have kept us hooked girl 🙂

  21. Glad that you are here in February to in Blogabeerrydazzle. The story is getting more and more interesting. Would Maya become more negative in future?

  22. I want to tell Maya that, ‘ Girl, give yourself more grace and don’t go behind him’ Being ignored so much is a red flag at the beginning of any relationship
    looking forward to reading more of the story

  23. Looks like everyone has an agenda. I somehow feel the relationship is too toxic for Maya. She might as well walk into the sunset alone. Curious to know what happens next.

  24. I am glad Maya did not contact him first. It was great that he contacted first, but when she realized he was drunk… she should have cut it off and not brought up the “is he in love with me”. It is not her responsibility to make sure he is okay. If wants to feel bad about himself then that is his own situation to deal with. Why message Maya if he is at home with Anil. He could have brought up his problems with him… Something seems fishy about that situation.

  25. Oh wow! Now Anil is upto something for sure. He either knows everything what’s going on in Z’s mind or maybe he is the culprit, who is gonna create some issues in future! Awaiting the next chapter

  26. I am intrigued to know what happens with Maya! I don’t know why but I feel Anil is not the guy he portrays himself to be. Looking forward to reading more…

  27. Priyanka Chhabria

    Oh my god! I am hooked!! What happens next???
    Love is tricky and you have expressed that beautifully

  28. I hope Maya moves on soon, it clearly isn’t going to end well for her.. I know everyone must go through this at least once, but the signs seem so clear from an outside perspective, and she’s just dragging it out and going to get hurt.

  29. Oh it’s becoming more interesting now. Waiting to read more and see how the story unfolds. Will look forward for Z’s answer.

  30. This wants me feel more to read … its a feeling maya will become little negative.. waiting for more

  31. I have read all the parts till now & waiting for ur next post to know what happens next.
    Also, is it a fiction or an inspired real story?

  32. Wow. This is getting interest with each post… now I want to knw what will be Z’s reply. Though I doubt it will be a Yes. I knw writers don’t give in so easily so expecting a twist in the tale.

    Love is a very complicated emotion. I feel Maya should not have confessed during that phone call again. Sometimes, it hurts when you are the only person in love. It is ok to be heartbroken once and forever, than waiting for the other person to love you..

    Hoping the best for Maya

  34. I have been following along with this Chronicle for a while now and I can say it must really hurt to be Maya. Somehow I also associate it with the way women are taught to take all the pain and survive through it. It feels as though Zan is consciously in control of the narrative and the last word although this is all about Maya. The same way women are often secondary characters in their own story. What a raw and painful way of portraying the truth.

  35. I am nervous about what will happen next but I am also excited. I just wish the best for Maya. She deserves to be loved.
